Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: [Cazuela] Different layouts for homepage & single post/pageI’m going to give you a super-quick run-down of what you’d need to change, as that’s all I have time for at the moment.
If you want to remove the sidebar from the single post page, edit ‘single.php’ and remove this line:
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
Then you’ll need to adjust the width of the content area by editing the class and id’s for the content area and applying rules to make it 100% width:
<div id=”content” class=”site-content” role=”main”>
Same goes for the page.php file.
I know this is bare-bones info, but it should get you headed in the right direction..

In reply to: [Plugin : eshop] remove add to cart from product pageWhat are you using to find the template for that function?
The Show Current Template plugin is really useful for this sort of thing. It will list all the template PHP files used on a particular page.
As a follow up to what WPyogi said – there is usually a way to use Child themes to customize specific files so that they don’t get lost when updating a theme.

In reply to: [ALO EasyMail Newsletter] Fatal error with Contact Form 7 enabledWho is your web host?
You could login via FTP (preferably SFTP) and see if there’s a php.ini file at the root – if so, open it and look for something defining the memory limit, like this:
memory_limit = 64M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (64MB)
Edit that line and change the 64M and 64MB to 128M and 128MB respectively.
If there’s no php.ini file you could try adding one by using a plain text editor and putting in this line:
memory_limit = 128M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (128MB)
then save it to the root of your site via FTP (SFTP)
Some hosts don’t allow this or won’t obey the php.ini file in which case your only real option is to get a better host.

In reply to: [Menu Social Icons] Align icons to the rightThere’s a CSS rule that’s overriding your custom CSS – try using this code instead of what you have now:
li.social-icon {
float:right !important;

In reply to: Akismet installed but not showing in the admin window.When you say ‘not visible in the admin window’ – can you be more specific? Is it showing in the plugins list under the Plugins tab in the left side panel?
There could be many causes – the *most* likely is your web host configuration, but it could be any number of other things.
Who are you using for your web host? You might try contacting them and find out why you can’t connect to the wordfence.com server on port 443.
It may help if you post the exact text of the error messages.

In reply to: [ALO EasyMail Newsletter] Fatal error with Contact Form 7 enabledWho are you using for your web host? Different web hosts have limits on available memory – you could try adding this to your wp-config.php file:
define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘256M’);

In reply to: [Plugin : eshop] remove add to cart from product pageSince both elements – the grey box to the right of the product image and the grey bar below the image have the same class (eshop addtocart), there’s no way with CSS to hide one without also hiding the other.
The best workaround is to find which php file is being used to determine the layout and editing the code there to remove the bottom gray bar element.
I can’t tell you exactly which file that is or what to edit without having access to your site.

In reply to: [Menu Social Icons] Align icons to the rightYou have your enclosing brackets backwards – the code should look like this:
li.social-icon {
float:right;

In reply to: [WP News Bulletin] Everything ok, but seem the height is too shortIt looks like the plugin is inserting inline styles and it’s auto-fitting the image/text to the area. Unfortunately this makes it difficult to style easily. I’m thinking you’d have to look at the actual plugin code and make the necessary changes there, as simply defining CSS rules is unlikely to work.
Can we see the actual site? It would help immensely.

In reply to: Make Headlines Link's Without Changing FontDepending on how you’re wrapping your headlines – either with the
<a href=...>tag outside of the <h2> tag or within it, you could try either.article-layout h2 a {
your style rules here
}or
.article-layout a h2 {
your style rules here
}use rules like these to remove the underline:
text-decoration: none;

In reply to: Border between postsUse something like the My Custom CSS plugin – install and activate it, then copy/paste the exact code that alchymyth gave above.
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Child Theme style.css not loadingAlchymyth has some great points and, to add to that, the My Custom CSS plugin is an excellent choice for adding custom styles.
Firefox has great development tools, but I prefer Chrome as it has a few other features and extensions that make doing web design easier. Either one will server you well.
